I think we should
encourage Monthly Review to start reprinting older books as .pdf files. That’s
an affordable option for consumers, and wouldn’t involve big risks on their
part.

Actually I would recommend the 1978 Andre
Gunder Frank book which is out of print. I wrote to Martin Paddio to
re-print that text (World Accumulation 1492-1789) and I think it there are
more faculty willing to use the text it may actually get reprinted. So
why don't you write to Martin Paddio (editor of Monthly Review Press)
requesting re-printing of a most important text that suffers from the danger
of going permanently out of print? Ganesh.

L.S. Stavrianos published a wonderful
book entitled "Global Rift: The Third World Comes of Age" in 1981. It
was one of those life changing books for me that set me off on a journey
that I am still on. Unfortunately it seems to be out of publication
now. Does anyone have a one volume text that can replace this one for
new students interested in learning about the history of world capitalism
from the 15th century to the 20th?
Eric Wolf's book,
"Europe and the People Without
History," while great, just doesn't hit well with many students. Any
suggestions will be appreciated.
